research Hair biology and hair loss disorders: An update and new concepts
Recent discoveries have improved our understanding of hair loss, but challenges in treatment and knowledge among specialists still exist.
research Biology of Human Hair Growth and Common Baldness.
The document suggests that male hormones likely affect hair growth and baldness, and future treatments might involve stem cells and androgen-independent cells.
research The Effect of Plasma Rich in Growth Factors on Pattern Hair Loss: A Pilot Study
Treatment with plasma rich in growth factors improved hair density and thickness for hair loss patients.
research Implanted hair follicle stem cells form Schwann cells that support repair of severed peripheral nerves
Hair follicle stem cells can help repair damaged nerves.
research Differential expression and functionality of ATP-binding cassette transporters in the human hair follicle
Certain transporters are found in human hair follicles and may affect hair growth and loss.
research From Hair to Cornea: Toward the Therapeutic Use of Hair Follicle-Derived Stem Cells in the Treatment of Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency
Hair follicle stem cells can help treat eye surface issues by becoming corneal cells.
research Cytokeratin 15 expression in central, centrifugal, cicatricial alopecia: new observations in normal and diseased hair follicles
CK15 is not a reliable marker for stem cells in damaged hair follicles from patients with CCCA.
research Nonviral in Situ Green Fluorescent Protein Labeling and Culture of Primary, Adult Human Hair Follicle Epithelial Progenitor Cells
A nonviral method was developed to label and culture human hair follicle stem cells.
research Inherited Disorders of the Hair
The study concluded that genetic mutations affect human hair diseases and identified key genes and pathways involved in hair growth and cycling.
research The use of polyethylenimine–DNA to topically deliver hTERT to promote hair growth
Using polyethylenimine-DNA to deliver the hTERT gene can stimulate hair growth and may be useful in treating hair loss, but there could be potential cancer risks.
research The Thinning Top: Why Old People Have Less Hair
Old people have less hair because their hair follicles don't regenerate as well, not because of fewer stem cells, and a protein called follistatin might help reactivate hair growth.
research Hair follicles, their disorders and their opportunities
Hair follicles offer promising targets for delivering drugs to treat hair and skin conditions.
research Extended theory of selective photothermolysis: A new recipe for hair cooking?
Permanent hair removal is hard, but using longer laser pulses at lower power might improve results.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research 275 Nonpigmented hair removal using photodynamic therapy
Photodynamic therapy can potentially remove nonpigmented hair by damaging hair follicles.
research The Biology of Hair Follicles
Hair follicle biology advancements may lead to better hair growth disorder treatments.
research Contrasting Localization of c-Myc with Other Myc Superfamily Transcription Factors in the Human Hair Follicle and During the Hair Growth Cycle
Different Myc family proteins are located in various parts of the hair follicle and may affect stem cell behavior.
research Autologous smashed follicular dermal graft with epidermal cell suspension in chronic nonhealing leg ulcers
A new treatment using skin and hair cells may help heal stubborn leg ulcers effectively and safely.
research 269 The PPAR-γ modulator, N-acetyl-GED, protects from epithelial-mesenchymal-transition to human hair follicles: Potential relevance for scarring alopecia
N-acetyl-GED may help prevent and partially reverse a process that leads to scarring hair loss.
research 459 Estetrol prevents catagen progression in healthy and female pattern hair loss hair follicles ex vivo
Estetrol may help prevent hair loss and support hair growth in women.
research Nerve-Derived Sonic Hedgehog Defines a Niche for Hair Follicle Stem Cells Capable of Becoming Epidermal Stem Cells
Nerve signals are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become skin stem cells and help in wound healing.
research Ceramide Synthase 4 Regulates Stem Cell Homeostasis and Hair Follicle Cycling
Ceramide Synthase 4 is essential for normal hair growth and preventing hair loss.
research MicroRNA-205 promotes hair regeneration by modulating mechanical properties of hair follicle stem cells
MicroRNA-205 helps hair grow by changing the stiffness and contraction of hair follicle cells.
research There and Back Again: Hair Follicle Stem Cell Dynamics
Hair follicle stem cells can return to their original niche and help regenerate hair.
research Neurotrophic Effects of Silibinin on Differentiation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells to Neurons
Silibinin at 0.5 μg/ml helps hair follicle stem cells turn into neurons.
research 1422 Uncoupling desmosomal cadherin adhesion activates quiescent hair follicle stem cells and orchestrates self-organized regeneration through outside-in signaling
Disrupting a specific protein's function in hair follicle stem cells triggers their activation and a self-healing process.
research Neurotrophic Effects of Silibinin on Differentiation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells to Neurons
Silibinin helps hair follicle stem cells become neurons at 0.5 μg/ml, but higher doses are toxic.
